5/5 Shiva B. 6 years ago on Google
Decided
to
head
to
Medellin
and
Cartagena,
and
was
doing
some
research
on
places
to
visit,
when
I
decided
to
half
heartedly
enquire
about
a
boat
ride.
It
was
at
that
point
that
I
received
a
phone
call
from
someone
from
Latin
Hosts.
This
person
introduced
himself
in
a
very
professional
manner
and
spoke
FLUENT
ENGLISH.
I
was
pleasantly
surprised.
During
our
conversation,
at
no
time
did
I
feel
pressured
into
buying
any
tours,
Ian
was
simply
interested
in
my
interests,
and
based
on
my
responses,
he
made
some
recommendations.
BEST
DECISION
EVER!!!!!!!!!
I
requested
airport
transportation,
a
trip
to
Guatape,
Paragliding,
ATV-ing,
a
boat
excursion
and
another
tour.
The
prices
were
extremely
reasonable,
Ian
even
provided
me
with
a
SIM
card
with
data
so
I
could
be
in
communication
as
I
deemed
necessary.
So
bill
paid,
and
itinerary
in
hand...I
am
getting
excited
about
my
solo
trip
to
Colombia.
Got
my
baggage
and
there
I
see
a
young
man,
professionally
but
casually
attired
standing
there
with
a
very
visible
sign,
"Shiva
-
Latin
Hosts!"
I
walk
over,
"Hi
-
I'm
Shiva,"
he
responded
"Hi,
nice
to
meet
you,
I
am
Juan
and
I
am
your
driver,
its
a
pleasure
too
meet
you,
how
are
you?"
Wowwwww
perfect
English
speaking
guy
again,
very
humble
and
professional
demeanor.
He
grabs
my
luggage,
and
says
lets
go.
So
nice
of
him.
I
ask
if
he
can
recommend
any
restaurants,
I
was
a
bit
hungry,
Juan
took
me
to
a
beautiful
restaurant
en
route
to
my
apartment.
Man
the
view
was
spectacular,
food
was
delicious,
drinks
great,
there
was
even
a
live
band!
And
the
price!!...easily
60
USD..not
in
Colombia
though...maybe
15
bucks
drinks
included.
I
really
felt
comfortable
with
Juan,
and
for
all
my
activities
I
booked
through
Latin
Host
he
was
my
driver.
His
car
was
new,
even
asked
what
type
of
music
I
liked!
His
driving
was
cautious
and
efficient.
FIRST
CLASS
TREATMENT!
The
tours
were
fantastic,
and
what
I
liked
about
Latin
Host,
is
that
their
employees
really
do
care
about
us
tourists.
They
are
knowledgeable
about
the
rich
Colombian
history
and
when
they
convey
stories
about
land
marks
and
events,
you
can
have
a
depiction
in
your
mind.
Latin
Hosts
made
my
trip
what
it
was.
The
team
really
went
above
and
beyond
my
expectation.
They
would
always
enquire
if
everything
is
ok,
if
I
needed
anything,
not
in
a
bothersome
way,
but
more
of
in
an
accommodating
way.
WOW,
the
experience
with
them
really
added
to
my
trip
Colombia
is
beautiful,
and
Latin
Hosts
made
my
experience
even
more
beautiful.
Fantastic
rates,
English
speaking
kind
and
considerate,
respectful
and
well
humored
professional
staff....My
itinerary
was
FLAWLESS
DUE
TO
LATIN
HOST's
PROFESSIONALISM
AND
GENUINE
SENSE
OF
INTEREST.
They
are
really
leaps
and
bounds
ahead
in
their
industry.
Latin
Hosts
employee
Andrea
(ANOTHER
ENGLISH
SPEAKING
EMPLOYEE)
even
saved
my
money
on
my
fantastic
boat
tour
in
Cartagena,
she
called
me
and
said
"Hey
Shiva,
just
a
reminder,
everything
is
paid
for,
so
you
do
not
have
to
pay
any
taxes
(which
was
like
20
USD).
Wow,
she
didn't
even
have
to
do
that,
I
would
have
paid
just
because
I
thought
that's
what
I
had
to
do....nope.,..she
literally
saved
me
money!
Really
shows
their
commitment
to
excellence.
Ian,
Juan
and
Andrea,
Latin
Hosts,
your
team
is
NUMERO
UNO!!!!!
Thank
you
for
making
Colombia
the
best
trip
I
have
ever
had.
You
guys
added
a
lot
to
it!
thank
you!
